B12 - Spearpoint – William Henry

B12 - Spearpoint

Equally loved for its utility and its robust style, this design epitomizes William Henry’s core philosophy – that superlative function deserves to be elevated to superlative art.
When the frame is not made from aerospace grade titanium, it is crafted from state-of-the-art metal alloys and used as a canvas for the stunning work of Koftgari artisans, silver carvers, and some of the most admired hand-engravers in the world. The frame is inlaid with carbon fiber or with the rare and precious materials that are the hallmark of William Henry’s work, including fossil coral, dinosaur bone, fossil ivories, Woolly Mammoth, mother of pearl, and exotic woods.
The blades include all the award-winning styles and patterns that have made William Henry one of the most cherished and sought-after brands in the world: from the stunning hand-forged damascus steel, to ‘copper wave’ damascus, and ZDP-189 (a powder metal die steel that yields the sharpest cutting edge the industry has ever seen), all the blades perform at the very top of the industry and are built for a lifetime of use.

The button securely locks the blade open and ‘detents’ the blade closed – this detent keeps the blade secure in the handle, but allows the user to override and open the blade easily with one hand using the thumbstud. Both the locking button and the thumbstud are inlaid with a variety of bezel-set and cabochon gems to compliment the other exotic and rare materials you will find on each knife design.

Each knife in the Spearpoint Collection includes either a titanium pocket clip or a lanyard system; the lanyard bail (where applicable) is crafted from either sterling silver or 14K gold – the lanyard system also includes a leather ClipCase carrying system. Every piece is engraved with two distinct numbers – a serial number on the blade and limited edition number on the leading edge of the handle. The numbers, along with the details about the knife’s construction, are listed in the included Certificate of Authenticity.
